    @domubpkm said: Make Ratatoskr recognize various extensions? I just wanted to give a quick feedback on this request. I initially thought it would be a simple matter of registering the BT SharePlugin for all file types. It turns out it's not as easy as that: as currently written, the ContentHub component of UT doesn't allow that (although it allows it for "destinations", e.g. when using FileManager to "download" a file). To make a long story short, if I register the BT SharePlugin for all file types, it no longer appears for any file type. I tried another approach, which was to report unknown file types as Documents. This sort of works, but it has two shortcomings: it only works from inside Ratatoskr, i.e. you could re-share arbitrary files that are already sitting in the app cache, but you could still not use FileManager to share them directly. now, when sharing a raw binary file from Ratatoskr, the "share with" dialog also offers unsuitable apps like the editor. Considering this, I'm rather reluctant to implement this "half-baked" workaround. There is already an enhancement request on the ContentHub's Gitlab to "cover all file types for the Share functionality", but it's open since 2021 and doesn't seem to be getting much traction.

    The behaviour of the Quintus seems related to this Gitlab issue: Bluetooth sometimes in a state where not all paired devices are listed and can be connected

    @Keneda said: and web applications significantly web applications and apps are 2 different things I'd guess. For fun I tried to replace in the launcher.sh for the piano app of @pparent the qmlscene6 (provided by the app, qt6 is packaged into the app) by the system one and it failed miserably so at the moment I think that QT6 is not available for apps, at least not in a straightforward way)

    @musicologist I also noticed this issue (24.04-1.3). It doesn't occur every time (AFAIK) and in my case it can't be linked to turning mobile data on and off, as I've not used that feature yet on the Quintus. When I noticed it, turning WiFi off and then back on was enough to make the SSIDs visible, though.

First place to look at would be the XDA forums as there are, or at least were, some unofficial Ubuntu Touch ports that pop there sometime.

    Here I would, at least for security-criticsl apps, recommend going the Snap route. Not only does it do fine-grained AppArmor mediation, it also does cgroup, udev and seccomp configuration to reduce the attack surface available to the app. It has it way harder than ordinary Ubuntu Touch apps to escape the sandbox, even compared to clicks. Snaps are very well suited for paranoid usecases.

    @pparent I don't know if you'll risk it, I can't give you any warranty as it's not tested by me, but you could try to download the config file, edit it to set a bigger value for system_a: - fastboot:resize_logical_partition: partition: "system_a" size: 3221225472 and launch the installer with the -f option on the modified file. If you need hand holding, you could find more experienced people than me on this forum or on Telegram. edit: I forgot to say that you'll probably need to set a value in 4K blocks and multiply it by 4096.

    If anyone can report the current status of the app on 24.04-2.x, it would help, as I currently don't have a testing device compatible with it! https://forums.ubports.com/topic/12379/ubuntu-touch-24.04-2.0-call-for-testing/10 Thank's!

    @nbdynl said: @trunghieu1710, out of curiousity, why would you want to have any os installed without a functioning screen? Where I live, they use a number of Samsung devices, including the Samsung S7. They use them in large quantities, around several hundred thousand, to run fake advertisements and obtain promotional codes.These phones have been modified to receive power directly and remove the screen, controlling everything entirely via ADB. I can buy them very cheaply and I want to take advantage of that.

    @idonthatevests Some devices can power on SSD via USB-C OTG with power delivery. Fairphone 5 with Fairphone OS can do it, I use it with a sandisk extreme SSD 500Go, it works very well. On the other way, if I want to use an HDMI dongle with SSD attached, for example to play a movie with my FP5 from the SSD, I have to power the dongle with external power because FP5 can't deliver enough power to SSD and dongle with HDMI/audio output in use for a stable playback. Now I still don't have a FP5 with UT on it so I can't test with this OS for now (will come).

    I have found that the community app request is only for devices running HyperOS, not MIUI. So, the quota limit is not applicable.
